2017 Anne Sophie Dubois Fleurie "L'Alchimiste"

Anne Sophie Dubois is one of the younger producers in Fleurie, but has already become an important voice for the region, particularly in regard to the movement to eschew carbonic maceration, as has been the rule in Beaujolais over the last half century, to revert to traditional Burgundian fermentation, which results in a more extracted, tannic, and slower-developing wine. “L’Alchimiste” is all about purity and finesse, with subtle floral aromatics typically found in Fleurie.
